The Things I'm Grateful For!

Sometimes it's nice to just kick back and think about the things you're thankful for. Over the last couple days I've been thinking about the many things I'm thankful for, here are just a few(in no particular order)...

1. My husband, because he can make me smile and I ♥ him so much!
2. The temple and the blessings it brings to my family's life.
3. Christ, Our Savior and his sacrifice to redeem each one of us.
4. The scriptures for the revelation revealed through prophets.
5. Our home, somewhere I can come and know I'm safe from the world.
6. My parents, for giving me so much while growing up!
7. My brothers, for being some of my best friends even if we didn't always get along.
8. Our cat Ariel, even though some times she can be lazy or annoying :)
9. Wholesome music, for enlightening my mind.
10. Best friends, for always being there through the many trials.
11. My youth leaders who really made me feel like "I can" rather than "I can't".
12. Prayer, because it is my phone line to my Heavenly Father!
13. Nature, for it's natural beauty.
14. Our Camera, for capturing those candid moments.
15. Our vehicles, so we don't have to walk in the nasty rain and bitter cold weather.
16. Warm blankets, so we can snuggle up on the couch and not freeze.
17. Sunshine, for bringing out the best in all of us!
18. Ice Cream, cause its one of our favorite treats.
19. My In-Laws, who knew you could marry into such a great family.
20. Smiles, because they are totally contagious =D
21. My cub scouts, because children bring joy to my heart.
22. Computers, for keeping me connected to friends so far away!
23. White dresses, because they symbolize 3 things, Birth, Baptism, & Marriage!
24. Sisters, because you can adopt them from any family and all of a sudden they're yours!
25. Spending time with my husband, laughing, loving, living!

Being grateful for what you already have can bring so much joy to you when you're wishing for things you don't have!
